Built on a 1903 chassis this is an comprehensive build. The 1903 has to be sourced and test fired to ensure the rifle is capable of the required accuracy. Upper hand guard and block are replicas and the customer has to source the scope, although replica scopes are now available through Leatherwood Hi-Lux optics. This particular rifle has an original US Marine Corp contract Unertl Scope.

The rifle is built exceeding the standards as required by the US Marine Corp Armourers but keeping in line with the build at the time. If the customers wishes he can add modern accuracy improving techniques such as bedding and aftermarket trigger units in they wish. The rifle is set up on a bed, clocked and the blocks precisely aligned with the bore.

The rifle was assembled, test fired and achieved a 1.5” group at 100yrds with factory ammunition. No attempt has been made to fake this rifle in any way. It was built as a conversion and to match and exceed the capabilities of the original rifle.
